The Media Whores
Who they are; and are they a danger to our national security?
Essay by

07 March 1999
Let's go over some household names. How about Gary Samore? Or Notra
Trulock? Know who they are? No? Then what about Federico Pe�a? Bill
Richardson? Louis B. Freeh? Samuel R. Berger? Here's a tough one - Jiang
Zemin. How about that one? Know him?
What!! You don't know who these people are? Okay, let's try some others.
How about Monica Lewinsky, and Linda Tripp, and Lucianne Goldberg? Or
Kathleen Willey, or Juanita Broaddrick? Do you know who these folks are?
Of course you do.
If some of the names mentioned in the first paragraph are familiar to
you - even if they're not household words, there's still some hope for
us. But if you scored a zero on the name recognition scale, then we need
to talk my friends. First, however, let's find out who are these people
with the strange names and why they should be important to us.
Gary Samore. He's a senior National Security Council official who
handled a little matter called the Chinese theft of American nuclear
secrets from the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico. Did you
happen to know about that? That's the one where the Chinese gained years
and probably saved billions by stealing our latest atomic technology.
And there's some suggestion that the Administration, while not
intentionally covering it up, didn't work too hard to uncover it
publicly, delayed informing Congress and didn't plug the leak on the
spot.
Notra Trulock? He's the Energy Department intelligence official who
first raised questions about the possibility of the Chinese espionage.
Federico Pe�a? He's the former Secretary of Energy under whose
jurisdiction all this nuclear business falls.
Bill Richardson? No? Okay. He's the Secretary of Energy who succeeded
Mr. Pe�a. Now, he's got to deal with the Chinese stealing our most
dangerous and devastating atomic weaponry.
Louis B. Freeh? Geez. If you don't know he's the director of the FBI,
whose also been involved in this Chinese spy case, you've got to be
comatose. C'mon. I'm trying to make it easier here.
Samuel R. Berger? Okay. I'll cut you some slack. He's only the
President's national security advisor. Remember national security?
That's the stuff we're supposed to worry about so some lunatic rogue
nation, like Iraq or Libya, or some nut case like Osama bin Laden
doesn't blow us up and kill our people. Just one of those little details
in running a government.
Jiang Zemin? Not sure? Well, he's only the president of about 1.1
billion people who are now going to have a new and far more serious
nuclear threat than they ever could have dreamed of.
So, now that we've got a real and immediate threat to our national
security to think about and talk about, what's coming over the airwaves?
Monica. And where she touched him and where he touched her and what they
talked about and what phone sex is and on and on and on ad infinitum, ad
nauseam.
Why? Because the networks are obviously terrified that if they direct
their attention to real news, their ratings might drop. After all, as
soon as the impeachment trial was over, the drop in talking head show
ratings was so dramatic that the boys in the back rooms decided to go
with The Scandal as the continuing lead story. And now that Monica's
traipsing across Europe twanging her tale of the thong, the media's
going to get at least a good two-week ride while they cover her
titillating trail of trash.
Better yet. There's now a story that the Israeli Mossad has its hands on
tapes of phone sex calls between Monica and Bill. That could buy these
networks a couple of months.
But let's assume the worst by assuming that such tapes exist. So what?
What are we going to discover if we listen to them? That they talked sex
talk over the phone? These morons don't seem to understand that we
already know this. And if we heard it, what would we learn? The answer's
simple. Nothing. Absolutely nothing. And we don't care. Don't they get
it? We just don't care.
But, hot tapes apparently sell TV time and that's why, when this country
is now faced with an espionage case that may dwarf the Rosenberg and
Pollard disasters, the real media whores turn out to be the media
itself. For the sake of ratings, they're selling themselves and the rest
of us into a national complacency about our own security.
Does the name Nostradamos mean anything to you?
